May 4, 201115 yr Twenty-four year old Michael Brown - Gas Gas from Scarborough edged clear of the chasing pack on the second day of the 2011 Scottish Six Days Trial (SSDT) with a two mark ride to follow on from his clean performance yesterday. Brown's lead is a slender one, with him holding a single mark advantage over his team mate Dougie Lampkin - Gas Gas who dropped three marks today. Lampkin failed to find the right line in the final section at Creag Lundie and knows he will have to work extra hard if he is to record a record breaking sixth win come the end of the week. Last year's winner Alexz Wigg - Sherco was best on the day with a score of only one mark, which sees him move up to sixth in the overall standings. In more bright sunshine Ian Austermuhle - Beta maintained his assault with a four mark ride, most of which he lost during the early part of the day when conditions were both slippery and loose. The popular rider from the North East now has a total of five marks overall, which puts him level with 2007 winner James Dabill - Beta who faired better on day two, dropping only two marks.
